Default Puked antifreeze 2003 1.8T Quatro

Hey guys, its been awhile.

So today was 84 degrees and drove home with the A/C half way home. Finally got home and parked my 2003 a4 1.8T (just hit 80K miles)in my driveway. Was talking to my neighbor when all of the sudden I heard a noise come from the a4. Looked over and noticed coolant/antifreeze was gushing out from the bottom. OH NO!!!.

What do you guys think it is? hose? water pump?. I just called a shop today at lunch too to ask how much it will charge me to change the timing belt and water pump.

Hope its not to severe. Man not happy.

many thanks in advance

I think your electric cooling fans are not operating properly. The car probably heat soaked after you parked & then it blew out the overflow.
Just a guess though!
